Mini Mushroom-&-Sausage Quiches

These crustless mini quiches are like portable omelets. Turkey sausage and sauteed mushrooms keep them light and savory. Small and satisfying, they're also a good finger food for your next cocktail party.

READER'S COMMENT:

"These mini quiches were great!!! My neice Tracy made them for Thanksgiving and we all loved them. I brought some leftovers home and just ate them for breakfast. They are a perfect party snack or appetizer and healthy as well.

This is my last weekend of freedom before I return to work, so I will be making this recipe again. I used this recipe for the past 2 years while I was in grad school and it really was fabulous. I don't really want to eat frozen processed foods, so this is great. The mini quiches freeze well, so you can make them ahead of time. I would throw one in the microwave and pair it with an english muffin and a banana. VERY GOOD!!!!

Perhaps a better name for these would be "Individual sausage-mushroom quiches" instead of "mini" since they are cooked in a normal size cupcake pan. Having said that, I did have to cook my quiches longer than the 25 minutes--more like 37 minutes and that is after I changed the heat source to my convection oven at the 25 minute mark. These were very tasty and I think will be fun to experiment with using different ingredients. This will now become my "go to" recipe for Christmas morning eggs.

These were absolutely delicious. I made them using pre-cooked Jimmy Dean turkey sausage (I sauteed them and chopped them up) but I did have to cook them a little longer. I now have breakfast for the next few days. I can't wait to try these with other ingredients.
